That's a cool link to a site where you can convert virtually any measurement to any other measurement system.

FYI: 220 C is roughly 425 degrees, and 180 C is roughly 350 degrees. (C = Centigrade)

…and 400g (grams) of ground beef is just under one pound.

Conversion's not the problem, whats capsicum?  Green & Red Peppers??

Yep, it's peppers.  We would probably only hear the term capsicum when referring to hot peppers.

that's where I heard it, so I figured.  Patrick just picked his first jalapeno pepper, so we may have to use it in this recipe!

Sorry — I didn't say that very plainly.  Yes, it means plain old red and/or green peppers.  But the only time we would hear the word capsicum is when someone is talking about the heat level of a pepper, or as an ingredient in a topical rub for muscle pain.

Hi guys and gals..

Sorry re the conversions…gave you our Aussie oven temps. Next time will post both :]

Capsicums are not chilli and have no heat.

Check this out…this is what we call capsicums in Australia :]

What a cool page — great pictures and descriptions of each color of pepper (the sweet ones, not the hot ones).  Do you have a different name for hot peppers like jalepenos or serranos?
